All of Sports: Rangers vs. Celtic (Scottish Football), these two teams literally HATE each other!!!!

As for the ManUtd vs. NYY debate, I've been talking to alot of people re: this and United are definately the more recognised and worldwide, the most popular sports franchise...I'm pretty sure that they're also the richest, but I may be wrong...(I'm not a huge soccer fan)

Hey, we all agree that Yanks-Red Sox is huge, but what about Cubs-Yankees? They play each other this year for the first time since the '38 World Series and the Cubs have never beaten the Yankees in any game. This could be an up and coming rivalry.

I doubt it about Cubs-Yankees. After this year, when will be the next time they play? You can't have a rivalry based on speculation. The Yankees also play the Reds. Ask YankeeMan how he is looking forward to that.

Originally posted by YankeeMan Hey! They've only won six in my lifetime <does some quick caculations> Oh wait, that's the most in baseball, during that time frame. Ummm, nevermind...

I think of what you said above and I can't help but think of my poor father who LOVED the Sox, lived 79 years and never saw a championship come to Boston,,, I hope you realize how lucky you are. ... :o ......

I know how "lucky" it is to be a Yankee. I also know, to some extent (18 years) what a drought feels like.

My great baseball hope is that I'll live long enough to see the Cubs and Red Sox both win the World Series.

It would be a great day for baseball -- not just in Boston or Chicago. And if I get a little "watery eyed" while your celebrating know this... It will not be from sadness or anger. It will be from great joy.

Obviously I am not way up there with most of you as far as the history of the game is concerned, however from what I have read there is no doubt that no other rivalry can match the Red Sox - Yankee history. Interestingly, during yesterday's telecast of the Giants/Dodgers game the same question was asked in the fans survey and the result (over 17,000 responses) was overwhelming to the BoSox/Yankees with more than 62% of the vote. Second was Giants/Dodgers and third was Cubs/Cards.

No matter how good you are, you're going to lose one-third of your games. No matter how bad you are you're going to win one-third of your games. It's the other third that makes the difference. ~Tommy Lasorda
